Currently equipped with three CH-146 Griffon helicopters, 444 Combat Support Squadron’s primary mission is to provide rapid response to local emergencies during flight operations and military exercises taking place at 5 Wing. In its utility role the squadron carries out tasks such as range support and assistance to civil authorities. And the Griffons may be employed in other secondary missions, including search and rescue (as can almost all Canadian Armed Forces aircraft).
